Give notice at 8am (right when you come back from New Year’s break.)

funny

My question exactly. I’d say put in your notice Jan 3. But I need all my vacation to hit in tax year 2021 so I’m putting in my notice dec 13. FWIW

No this year I’m in a unique tax year so I’ll pay low taxes in any income in 2021. So trying to lock as much as I can

I'd say just after the Christmas/NYE vacay.

Op- highly likely

Any United health group remote employees here? I recently accepted an accounting job and some of the onboard makes it seem like I’m only allowed to work from my home office. I usually spend a few weeks a year out of town visiting family and work during this time so I don’t have to use PTO but I’m nervous I won’t be allowed to do that anymore

Moving from T2 to McKinsey. How do vacation requests work? I have family and friends getting married this fall in weddings delayed because of covid, but I’ll just have started so wanted to get a sense of how realistic taking vacation this fall would be and how to approach taking it (e.g. mention to HR, staffing). TIA!

Any of your agencies closed this week? We're "open" and were encouraged to use PTO if we we planned on being out. Now all the PMs are working because there's work to do and several of our clients are open, but there are no resources to do the work.

I just started a new job 2 months ago, benefits and PTO don’t start until 90 days in so I still have a month before I can take off any time, and today found out my company doesn’t offer paid maternity leave.
I’m really struggling handling the symptoms and maintaining my full time job. Thinking about looking for a part time job to have more time to myself through the pregnancy since I won’t be getting a paid leave anyways, but lost on where to start looking. Any recommendations?

You may not know what you want for Christmas this year, but your home sure does! Here is a Holiday wishlist we wrote up that will be a treat for your home this year:
